The videos provide uncommonly stark images of the type of settler assault Palestinians in the West Bank say now occurs frequently.
Two clips showing attacks in Masafer Yatta. "Israeli police said they detained 22 Palestinians from the village on suspicion of stone throwing" but guess what, they did nothing to the settlers who carried out the vicious attacks. That's how it goes in the West Bank

Who are Israeli settlers?

Settlers are Israeli citizens who live illegally on private Palestinian land in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem.

Israel started building settlements after capturing the West Bank, East Jerusalem and Gaza Strip in the June 1967 Six-Day War

Now more than 700,000 settlers – 10 percent of Israel’s nearly seven million population – live in 150 settlements and 128 outposts in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem

21st Century LAND THEFT / LAND GRABBING:

"Indeed, when the attacks commenced, three Palestinians were seized by the Israeli military, detained, and then subjected to police interrogation. Such violent raids are far from unique in West Bank, especially in the areas of South Hebron Hills, Masafer Yatta and the Jordan river valley. Since the start of this year, the Centre for Jewish Non Violence has documented more than 40 violent settler attacks in the village of Susya alone.

Most go unnoticed by the rest of the world. But this time was different. One of the Palestinian victims was the award-winning director Hamdan Ballal, whose film, No Other Land, which covers the destruction of Palestinian communities in the occupied West Bank, won best documentary at the recent Academy Awards. For hours, the military didn’t officially disclose his whereabouts, and attempts to locate him failed. When the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) finally issued a statement, they absurdly labelled him and his fellow villagers terrorists.

This facade of justice, when law is nothing but an empty shell, is typical of how the Israeli occupation works. Under its veneer of legality, the most brutal savagery is legitimised and the role of criminal and victim inverted."

One organisation has even offered to buy weapons.

"‘lynch mob’ of Israeli settlers attacks Palestinian director and American activists" [ ± 1min]
by MIddleEastEye

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/YyUSL-jTm94

Quote by MEE:
"Mar 25, 2025
Palestinian film director and Academy Award winner Hamdan Ballal was violently attacked by what his colleague described as a "lynch mob" of Israeli settlers on Monday night in the Palestinian village of Susya, south of Hebron in the occupied West Bank.
"The masked settler in the video is part of the lynch mob that attacked Hamdan’s village, they continued to attack American activists, breaking their car with stones," Ballal's co-director for No Other Land, Yuval Abraham, posted on X.
Abraham also said that Ballal’s whereabouts are now unknown after Israeli soldiers seized him from an ambulance that had arrived to treat him.
The same group of settlers was filmed attacking America activists in another video posted by Abraham on X."

'De Palestijnse filmmaker Hamdan Ballal heeft een verklaring afgelegd over zijn arrestatie gisteravond op de door Israël bezette Westelijke Jordaanoever en zijn verblijf in een Israëlische cel.'

#HamdanBallal, the Oscar-winning Palestinian filmmaker that Israeli settlers beat and tried to lynch on Sunday, and who was then dragged out of an ambulance by the IOF, has been let go.

Ballal is now in a hospital in Hebron, being treated for the injuries he suffered at the hands of the Israeli soldiers and settlers. They beat him everywhere. Then they left him, blindfolded and handcuffed, in the depths of a military base until his release.

One of the directors of the Academy Award winning documentary, "No Other Land," Hamdan Balal, has been attacked by West Bank settlers and arrested. The truth is too much for them to see!

Salah Diab's story
"Last month, the Jerusalem District Court paved the way for the eviction of 22 members of his family from the property they’ve lived in for decades...the judge sided with Nahalat Shimon International, an Israeli settler group that seeks to expel the Diabs and replace them with Israeli Jews"
Just think if it happened to you, illegal occupation, you have to leave your home for the occupier. Hell no.
